Letter: Recall group's true colors are evident

It is now evident that the recall effort being led against state Rep. Paul Scott is not a local, grassroots effort, but a calculated campaign funded almost entirely by the Michigan Education Association. Their efforts have lead to an election that will cost Genesee County tens of thousands of dollars, money that could have been better spent in our area.

And while the MEA and the recall group paints this as a grassroots effort, they used paid petition circulators (up to $4 per signature) and their headquarters is located in the UAW hall on Dort Highway.

If the voters of this area wanted to support the agenda of the MEA and UAW, then why would they have elected Rep. Scott by nearly a 20 percent margin over the UAW candidate? These groups need to stop trying to undo past losses and move on.
